Hello reefers,
I faced a setback when my clownfish larvae, 12 days old, died to a heater failure. Despite this, I'm gearing up for a new attempt with a hatch expected tonight. I've saved some old rotifers in jar in the fridge for 5 days, but they seem less active now. Can they still be fed to the larvae even if they're not moving at all? They are not on the bottom of the jar or glass, they are still in water column but not actively moving and swimming in random directions like before.
I also ordered a new rotifer culture last week, but the shipment from a reputable wholesaler is delayed by 6 days :/
Thanks
